Katie Price snogs Kris Boyson with her eyes open amid claims she faked their engagement

KATIE Price snogged new fiance Kris Boyson with her eyes wide open amid claims that she has faked her engagement.

The 41-year-old star posed for the awkward pic with her toyboy lover just hours after confirming her happy news during an appearance on Loose Women.

The pair enjoyed a glass of champers at a swanky London restaurant, with Katie sure to keep her huge diamond ring firmly on display for the photo op.

In the snap, 29-year-old Kris has his eyes closed as he plants a smooch on the former glamour model's lips, but Katie's eyes are unnaturally open.

Yesterday, The Sun Online revealed that Katie's friends believe the engagement news is "fake", and that the mother-of-five is only doing it for publicity.

Sources close to the star pointed out that the ring she flashed during Thursday's announcement is the same one that she wore back in April this year – shortly before admitting she faked being engaged for attention.

Insiders say that the news was also a surprise to her exes Kieran Hayler and Peter Andre – and her kids with them.

The Sun Online is told that her ex-husbands and children heard Katie’s news from Loose Women.

The source said: "Katie didn’t tell any of her close friends or family, she just announced it on TV, and everyone was shocked.

"She didn’t even tell Kieran, which was a bit cheeky as technically they’re still married to each other.

"She’s had that ring for ages – she’s always asking Kris ‘when are you going to ask me to marry you?’ but nobody actually heard anything about a proposal."

They added: "It’s all a bit convenient that it’s the same week her new single comes out. She’s desperate for the music to do well and to finally have success as a pop star.

"She’s now talking about getting a free holiday to Thailand for the wedding – and selling the pictures."

Katie's rep did not have any comment when approached by The Sun Online.

Back in April, Katie flashed a huge diamond ring in an Instagram pic with Kris while on holiday in Thailand.

However, she later admitted to the Daily Star: "I do it on purpose. You know what I’m like! I’ve just got to stir the pot haven’t I? I love it."

Earlier this week, Katie appeared on Loose Women flashing the same ring – and said Kris bought it for her.

Katie, who has been married three times and engaged four times before this, flashed the sparkler at the hosts – but didn’t actually use the word "engaged", say anything about a proposal or a wedding.

The star first tied the knot in 2005, marrying Peter before going through a bitter divorce four years later.

Together, they share 14-year-old Junior and 12-year-old Princess.

Katie then married Alex Reid in 2010 before splitting from the cagefighter two years later, tying the knot to third husband Kieran in 2013.

Katie and Kieran have five-year-old son Jett, and four-year-old daughter Bunny together, and their divorce is yet to be finalised after the two called time on their romance last year.

The reality star is also mum to 17-year-old Harvey.
